However, she soon realizes that an attractive single woman would not survive Iong in the brutal backwoods town, and is forced to pretend that the outlaw is her uncIe, because she needs his protection. The two cohabitate in an uneasy truce, but as the months pass, tolerance begins to turn to affection for the most unlikeIy coupIe.
